Best Surround Sound Headphones for Movies 2019

1. Skullcandy Crusher Bluetooth Headphones

Skullcandy doesn’t just stay true to style in design with these headphones.

It also pays close attention to their functionality.

Apart from tracks and volume control, the Crusher Bluetooth Headphones features a built-in remote with a microphone and it supports Bluetooth connection.

With a decent battery life of 40 hours, you’ll have this set working for a couple of days before the next charge.

Design

Skullcandy Crusher Wireless Bluetooth Headset is simple, stylish, and generally has a fancier and sophisticated appearance.

They are probably not the closed back headphones under 200 for movie lovers who don’t fancy bulky designs. But they fold-up easily and take up less space.

Sound Quality

While I do recommend Crusher for watching movies, they aren’t ideal for people who are looking for accurate sound.

Crusher features a fine-tuned bass that will blow your mind, but only if the bass boost is properly set.

The tremble is clear when you turn the bass boost switch down, and you’ll still hear a little bit of it when you seriously pump out the bass. The treble might be a little brittle and unrefined, but it’s not going to sound harsh on your ears anyway.

Setting the base level correctly isn’t going to be easy if you are getting these for the first time. But you should get a good edge once you balance out the sound levels correctly.

2. Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth Headphones

SoundLink Bluetooth Headphones echoes the fame of Bose the same way many of the brand’s headsets do.

And Bose doesn’t compromise the quality of this set at all.

With a transmission range of up to 30 feet from the point of your TV station, you can watch your favorite movie wirelessly without worrying about RF interference.

Good Play Hours

Whether you’ve borrowed a new TV series from your best friend or your sister has just recommended that you watch one of Hollywood’s best shows ever, SoundLink lets you watch for hours without disturbing people around.

While these headsets are perfect for quite listening, they only give you 15 hours of playtime. The playtime for these isn’t as good as for Skullcandy Crusher, but they should fit fine if you do not mind charging the battery often.

Control Buttons Included

Instead of controlling the sound of the audio only from your television, laptop, or desktop computer, SoundLink headset lets your equally control everything using the buttons on the right earcup.

With these wireless controls, you can change tracks, answer phone calls, and adjust volume on the go.

Carrying Case

When these headphones are not in use, don’t just toss them on the table or leave them on your bed. They come with a carrying case for storage, which you should utilize to ensure these headphones last for the long haul.

3. Noontec Hammo TV Wireless Headphones

If are looking for over ear headphones that packs the punch for cheap, I’d recommend Noontec Hammo Wireless Headphones for TV.

Known to deliver sound effects similar to a home theater, Noontec Hammo guarantees to deliver quality sound for the best audio experience straight from your television.

Thanks to the radio-frequency interference-free digital wireless technology, these headphones can transmit clear sound up to 10 meters in range from the spot where your television is locted

Long Battery Life

Whether you love TV series or you are more into movies that last an hour and a half, the Noontec Hammo can keep you watching for long hours.

Noontec brands these headsets with 50 hours of battery life; that’s more than 30 single movies before the battery begins to drain.

Lightweight

Noontec also takes into account how long you might likely have Hammo Wireless Headphones on and then makes them as lightweight as possible.

Add that to the fact that they have soft over earmuffs, and what you get is a set more comfortable for hours wearing.

A Bit Problematic

While Noontec Hammo Wireless headsets have a good transmission range, soft ear cup, and Bluetooth connectivity that pairs even without docking station, you can’t use them on your laptop, desktop computer, or mobile phone. These are only for TVs.

4. Avantree Foldable Bluetooth Headphones

Beats by Drake aren’t cheap. And SoundLink by Bose doesn’t give more than 15 hours of playtime without charge.

Avantree Foldable Bluetooth Headphones makes the best alternative to Beats and SoundLink for two reasons.

You are going to spend less than $100 on these headphones and still get the best movie watching experience that you would with high-end options.

Second, they have a decent playtime, which is completely different from what SoundLink by Bose gives you.

With 40 hours of playtime before the next charge, you can watch your favorite movie, daily reality shows, and television series for at least five days. That means charging this headset once a week – or maybe twice.

Audio & Device Compatibility

Avantree delivers the voice and sound clarity you need to enjoy your movies all the time. And given that it’s compatible with smartphones, televisions, laptops, and desktop computers, you can use them across multiple devices any time.

These headphones aren’t just good for music. According to Avantree, you can use the headset for gaming on popular game consoles like PlayStation 4 VR, Xbox One, and Xbox 360.

These headsets have a built-in bass booster that lets you customize audio your way. And with clear tremble and rich lows, you are sure to get the best audio experience whenever you use these headsets.

The Shortcomings

Although Avantree headsets are good for watching movies, they don’t have the best transmission range.

At least, some people might find the Bluetooth range to be a bit short. Something else, these aren’t noise-cancelling headsets, so they won’t work well in noisy environments.

5. Sennheiser RS 175 RF Wireless Headphone System

I’ve heard many people say that Sennheiser is a top audio equipment brand.

And it’s easy to see why their RS 175 RF Wireless Headphone System is a top of the range choice.

This one is a high-end product, though.

So, it won’t be easy on the wallet for those who can’t pay the earth.

For the asking price, however, you do get a feature-packed system. And, in my opinion, a good option that you’d probably fall of a cliff for any time.

Wireless Range

One thing I love about the RS 175 RF is the widest Bluetooth range. Unlike many wireless headsets that give you a transmission range of 30 feet or less, RS 175 RF promises a Bluetooth range of up to 300 feet on the go.

Engaging Sound Quality

Sennheiser knows that you need the best audio quality for a full immersion in your favorite movies. And that’s exactly what you get with the RS 175 RF.

These ones sound more or less the same like your home entertainment system, so you can expect high quality sound, from external noise.

The ergonomic round ear is perfect for a comfortable fit. And the closed back design cancels noise from the outside while making sure sound doesn’t leak out.
